re: AOP at Stanley Mound
Notes and photos from Craig:
As I headed down to Stanley Gap Road on the final stretch, I kept my eye out for the Artillery Observation Post mentioned on this website previously. Its exactly where the markers shows it on this site. It has been converted into an information and lookout point, with a display board showing the names of the islands and hills within view. (similar to the one at High West). Unfortunately the entrance and windows have been blocked off so access is denied. You can clearly see the camouflage on the outside and in one area it looks like the original paint is still visible, but it could be graffiti.
Excuse the courting couple in the photo. I was crashing around the bushes at their feet, but they were too engrossed with each other to budge.
